Text Formatting ⇒ formatting subsection

[dmuthu_cse]

Hello friends,

I have small problem with my subsection.. Yeah it is fine, when i have small title as subsection, but when a longer title comes(i.e. when the title exceeds one line, then a line space is created between two titles). i think that is because of my definition of subsection.

Actually i want line space after every subsection title, but not in the case, if a title is about 2 lines.

If the title is 2 lines, then it should run countinously in the next line.

EX:
It should be,

2.1.1 ADVANTAGES OF INSTRUMENT TRANSFORMERS AS COMPARED WITH SHUNTS RESISTANCE AND MULTIPLIERS

This the relevant text........................

And not,

2.1.1 ADVANTAGES OF INSTRUMENT TRANSFORMERS AS COMPARED WITH SHUNTS

RESISTANCE AND MULTIPLIERS

This the relevant text........................

Code: Select all

Hi, Muthu

change

Code: Select all

\titleformat{\subsection}{\fontfamily{phv}   
\fontsize{11}{27.5}\bfseries}{\thesubsection}{1em}{\raggedbottom}

to, for example,

Code: Select all

\titleformat{\subsection}{\fontfamily{phv}   
\fontsize{11}{14}\bfseries}{\thesubsection}{1em}{\raggedbottom}

Take into account that the second argument of \fontsize controls the distance between consecutive baselines.

Hello gmedina,

Thanks for suggestion.. It solved my problem.

I am very happy you are also given the tutorials related to that. That is very useful.

Thanks and regards,
